Interesting idea. I think people would turn on ad mode and then go to the other room or switch to a different window. I definitely did this when Hulu (I think) offers the option to watch one long commercial instead of several short ones spread throughout the program.

Users can already just swap to another window or block the ad outright.

In my view this should eliminate the ad blocking group entirely.
